    The Annex of Ruston

    This property has demonstrated ongoing negligence, dishonesty, and complete disregard for tenant…read moresafety. I have documented mold and water damage in my unit since May, and despite repeated notifications, management has failed to resolve the issue. I have been displaced from my leased apartment since September, with no access to the unit I am paying for. Management continues to withhold compensation until "repairs are complete," even though their repeated delays are the direct cause of the ongoing habitability issues. The property manager refuses to provide written confirmation regarding the presence or absence of mold. When I requested mold-testing documentation, I was informed that the results could not be released without regional approval -- yet the regional manager has been completely unresponsive for over two months. My cameras confirm that no certified mold specialist has entered the unit, contradicting management's claim that testing occurred. I was temporarily placed in a unit that had a broken window that did not lock, shattered glass on the ground, and nighttime disturbances involving individuals banging on the window, creating an unsafe environment. The unit was never properly cleaned or secured before placing me in it. Management has also disclosed personal information to other tenants without my consent, violating basic privacy standards. Staff communication is hostile, inconsistent, and dismissive, and emails and phone calls are routinely ignored. Mail pickup is restricted to unreasonable hours, creating additional barriers for residents. I paid $250 for a unit transfer after only two months of occupancy; no repainting occurred, no carpet was steamed, and only minimal cleaning was performed. That unit is now uninhabitable due to water damage and mold, and management still refuses responsibility. This complex has repeatedly shown a pattern of negligence, misrepresentation, and unsafe practices. Do not lease here.

    One star is not low enough. The Annex of Ruston is the most unsafe, ghetto apartment near campus…read more There are shootings in the parking lot all the time, cars are stolen from the "gated" area. The gate has not worked in three + years. The parking lot and hall ways smell like dr*gs. I fear for my life going to and from my car every day. Management is aware of all these issues and does nothing to fix them. DO NOT LIVE HERE. During the day it looks like a nice apartment area, but at night it gets scary. REALLY scary. Also, do not use the gym. Homeless people hide in there in the dark.

    Centenary College of Louisiana - 2023 Graduation

Centenary College. Initially, I was terrified, because as a single mother, a private school meant big bucks. I knew that Centenary College was one of the best schools in the south, my son was academically a good fit, but I never thought we would be able to manage the financial side of it. Centenary was helpful in so many ways: The admission counselor was welcoming, knowledgeable and a great resource of information for what to expect. The finance department not only gave us forms to fill out but found scholarships and grants that made tuition affordable and possible. Had my son not lived on campus, he would not have had any student loans, which says a lot in itself. Throughout the entire process, administration and faculty were champions for my son. The landscape is stunning and the size of the campus is cozy. It is a wonderful fit for any student who is not interested in getting lost in the crowd of large universities. Personal attention from professors is what I believe make this school a gem. Students have one on one experience and interaction with faculty, staff and administration. As a parent with another student in a state university, I can say without a doubt that Centenary College far exceeds the public experience. As a member of the community, I have been involved with many of the programs and community events that Centenary has to offer. I have attended art events at The Meadows Museum, athletic games at the Gold Dome, music and theater events at the Marjorie Lyons Playhouse to name just a few. Centenary College builds community beyond it enrollment!

    I've been living at the United Jeweler's Apartments for about 10 months now and I love it. It's a…read morenice place to live if you like the "downtown" vibe with an eclectic mix of people. Also, I like being so close to my job. The apartments are pet friendly industrial styled lofts with high ceiling with no two apartments the same. There are stacked washer and dryers in every unit. The hot water is scalding hot from the tap. You have to watch it when you turn on the shower even after 2nd, 3rd, or 4th person has taken a shower. You don't hear much noise from the other units however there are city sounds from outside like traffic, sirens, and trains. But that does not bother me. In fact I prefer those types of noises over the sounds of a rural area which I am coming from. Living in the United Jeweler's Apartments, you are in the heart of downtown life where there are lots of things to do for all ages within walking distance . . . and it's gated. Festival Plaza is the real selling point for these apartments which are next door and there is something going on over there all the time. However that does add to the outside noise. Sometimes I hear the music from the different events and concerts. Again, that does not bother me. However that might be a problem for some. At Festival Plaza they have events like Mudbug Madness, Red River Revel, and Farmers Market just to name a few. Most of the events are family oriented. If you like carnival styled events then you will love the events and concerts at Festival Plaza. There is also Sci-port Science Center that's a few blocks away that kids can enjoy too. There are plenty of bars within walking distance. If you like bar hopping, I don't think you can get to them all in one night. So drinking and driving does not have to be an issue living here. You are also walking distance from two casinos and the Red River District with a few nice restaurants. If by chance none of the above fits your fancy. Then parties thrown for the tenants at the complex are nice. They even have live bands performing with free food and drinks. It's a chance to meet the other tenants which over all have been nice so far. The only drawback to living here, if you want to call it that, is parking can be a problem. You can pay extra to have a parking spot inside the complex parking lot which is an extra $50 month. However they are not the biggest spots in the world. Parking on the street you run the risk of getting a ticket. It's metered from 8-5 Monday through Friday. Also, if there is an event at Festival Plaza you may not find a spot to park on the street. It would be wise to pay extra for the parking. Management is very helpful and very attentive to your needs. The curtesy officer is actually a uniform Shreveport police officer that lives on the premises with his family. It's a safe place to live if you have a family, a single female, or elderly and disable. Maintenance staff is good. Each time I have called which has only been twice in 10 months they have come within few minutes. In fact the maintenance guy told me I didn't have to call, just come knock on his door that's five doors down. Over all this is not the cheapest place to live in Shreveport, but I do feel like I am getting my money's worth so far. I hope to stay here as long as possible.

    Been here for a year and for the money you pay its not worth it at all. Most of what the promise…read morein their advertising is false. Secure parking? Parking is available for an extra $40 per month, but not so secure. Free basic cable? For a small fee of $10 per month. Animal friendly? No dog run...pet droppings all over the place...vicious animals are allowed...person was bit by a very aggressive large breed dog. Zero communication from the management. Very unprofessional atmosphere. It also very noisy here. Not only from the downtown area, which can be expected, but from residents in the halls. Slamming doors. Loud music etc. also, one fact that is never mentioned is the constant never ending trains blasting their horns because of a KCS train yard right behind the property. I have never had a positive experience while living here. My recommendation is to never ever lease from here.
